The mythical Seidio 3500mAh - Mogul, XV6800 Accessories

I say mythical because I can't find it. Places like moguldepot and all the sites who looks pretty much like it charges and outrageous price to ship this small item to Canada. It seems to be back order everywhere.
I'm starting to think I should go for the Mugen, since I really need something that'll last long. I kind of like using the gps, not so much for the car, but for when I run. Is the Mugen worth the cheap door?

I swear by these guys for all my accessories and batteries, going on 4 phones now. Very satisified customer.
edit2: 09/23/09- email from seidio stating it is NOT compatible with the holster listed below
edit: and says it's compatible with holster, agian, very satisfied buy.

This is by far my favorite of the 3 holsters I've previously owned for various phones by the same company. Phone sits very secure with no fear of falling out at all.
Interesting, the price is a bit steep but not too high.
I would like to see some higher res pics from a few angles to get a better idea of what the case cover looks like.
I have the holster but how do you know the extended battery fits the holster? From the single photo of the battery cover, it looks like the top sticks out as much as the area below the camera...

Yes I did see that though from the photo it does not look like that's the case. Do you really think it's compatible from that photo? I've had the extended battery for the Storm and the holster worked fine because the battery cover did not extend on the upper portion where the camera is. Guess we'll have to wait for someone to actually dive in but in the meantime I'm sticking to what I can tell from that photo on their site.
Reasonable price? depends on what you think is reasonable. You do realize that without either the battery or the phone, the other is pretty worthless. I think it's a great price considering crap motorola batteries are $30
got this from seidio, just an fyi, they must be talking about different holsters or the listing might just be plain incorrect.

I ordered this, and its been shipped already and I am awaiting arrival. I also have the innocase and holster combo, and while I know the innocase wont fit, I will try the holster and report back if that one works.
any idea which case will work?
:/
I got mine today. Huge battery
The replacement cover is ok, although I am afraid it will accidentally slide off in my pocket.
Overall, the added bulk really doesn't make a huge difference, in fact it makes it a little easier to hold.
Can't wait to see what the battery life on this sucker is like.

I got mine today too. I also like the added bulk. It fits my Seidio holster, even though the innocase that I got with the holster wont fit. Made of the same material as the innocase so its hard to scuff etc. I'll report back after a few cycles to let people know what I'm getting usage wise out of it.
UPDATE:
Well, it came off the charger at 3:30pm today saying 100%. I have been hammering it mercilessly for 6 hours now. Streaming Pandora for six hours straight, Turned on GPS, set all of my social network notifications to the quickest pull intervals, and my mail also. I have had the web browser open for nearly three hours, had three calls of around 20 minutes each, and my awake time since I pulled the battery off the charger is 100%. I am sitting at 75% right now. I am trying to get the battery low so I can get a full charge for the next cycle, but this damn thing won't go down. I guess I'll try to download a game or something and play it while listening to Pandora. This thing is a beast....
This is a beast. Used it all evening last night, and the power meter did not budge.
Also the new back makes the Hero much easier to hold.
Waiting for a day in the office where I have a weak signal to see how it does there. I'm guessing this thing will make it through a day or two no matter what I throw at it.
By far the best accessory...
Awesome, guys, glad to hear this thing is the real deal. I'm thinking about getting one but I'm waiting for the price to go down. Anyone know if they usually do? Last extended battery I bought was only $7, this one is pretty steep.
I found a better deal but not in stock ATM:

sounds great. can't wait to buy one, but i'm waiting to find out which case is compatible. i'm not picky, can be a leather pouch, any suggestions?

watch out for these kinda deals, i'm fairly certain seidio's waranty doesn't transfer to 3rd party sellers completely.
I had purchased a battery from seidio previously that was DoA, and after a conversation with their RMA department getting my invoice number and all that, they said they will replace bad batteries from anywhere but since I purchased through seidio directly they would send me a replacement without having to send the old one back first (or at all, they just said to pitch it). The battery that was sent to me was tested with a full power cycle before being over-nighted to my door.
I don't know, it's something to think about. If I'm getting a quality piece of gear, and the service to back it. I don't mind throwing out an extra little bit.
I'm on my second charge. The phone has been off the charger since 12pm on Sunday. I am sitting at 70% on Monday at 2pm. I'm really liking the usage I am getting out of this. I did not beat on it too much yesterday, just a lot of normal use. I figure at this rate, I will have to charge it every three or so days. I'm hoping it improves after a few cycles, even though I've only charged it twice so far. I'm going to run it down to 30% or so before the next charge....who knows when that will be lol.

Genuine HTC battery?

Hi there,
I got my battery I ordered from a dealer on Ebay, supposed to be an original HTC battery. I'm not so sure though, and some other opinions would be appreciated. Attached are pics of the battery I got with my phone, and the battery I got off Ebay. The Ebay battery isn't as smooth as my original - lumpy on both sides, anf the build quality isn't as good. Also, while it fits ok in my phone, it rubs against the top edge of the battery spot when i put it in.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
David
Just two more pics for detail comparison.
David
Nobody have any opinions as to whether the new battery is fake or not? Sigh...
can you provide the link of the seller?
if the batteries he sells are of the same serial no. then it is a fake/imitation.
Here's the seller:
http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/24_battery/
They've got several other HD2 batteries on sale, but all with the same pic. The serial number on my battery matches the pictures shown. ANy ideas?
Looking at several other batteries listed on Ebay, they all seem to share the same serial number as the one on the battery I received.
Lokking at those pics. I would say there one imitation of the original. Must be careful of ebay seller from China. I had quite a few thing off ebay. Even though they work. They did not last as long as the original.
DO you think I might have a case for claiming back my money? I did buy it under the assumption that it was a genuine battery, and given that it probably isn't, doesn't that constitute false advertising?
How much did you pay for it?
NOt that much - $8 if I remember right... To be honest, not worried so much about the money, more about others buying the battery under the same false pretenses as I did.
well i think its kind of common sense...
i would never buy a battery that is sold from htc around £35, $8 from a seller in china through ebay and expect to be the real deal....
or at least i would mail the seller to clarify if indeed the case is the original one and not one that looks like the original..
sometimes these people can hide behind words so u have to be careful and if sometimes something just doesnt feel right.. ask!
PS two famous quotations which i believe are very true.
"If something seems too good to be true, it probably isnt true!"
"you get what u paid for..."
Im sorry that this happened to you and i know it not about the money.
i get really pissed with sellers like this guy that are playing with our intelligence..

Is it Worth the extra money?

Hi all, I know both of these cases have been around this forum at some point, but I don't want to bring up a dead thread.
I'm just curious to owners that have either of these cases:
http://shop.portenzo.com/hardback-for-nexus/
And:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251139617...:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_11985wt_1037
I just want to know, is the eBay case good quality etc, I've heard good things about it.
Or is it worth the extra spend, and go all in for a portenzo case?
I love the portenzo cases especially how you can design it to represent you, but spending that much on a case is something I have never done. Is the build quality etc really that much better to warrant spending over 40$ on the portenzo?
The portenzo comes to 43+$ for me as the shipping is quite expensive due to me being in the UK.
THANKS IN ADVANCED !
I was happier with my $7 Amazon case then my $50 Portenzo case, so I would say its not worth the extra $$$
I've just taken delivery this morning of the case you've linked too on eBay from seller wedo-bestdeal.
Ordered Tuesday afternoon, came this morning. So good service.
As for the case, I'm happy with it!
It doesn't add too much more bulk to the tablet, folding the cover back turns the device on, as expected, and folding it right behind it, like you'd hold it whilst using it wth two hands, doesn't cause the tablet to sleep. I've read on a few posts that the magnets in some cases can be too strong and cause it to sleep by doing that.
I've folded the case to stand the tablet up, and to just have it at a gentle slope, both works well. It will jsut take a little time for the cover to be less stiff.
my only moan is that the case over laps, and curls underneath adding a little unavoidable bulk to it, but it's not much, and after playing with it, I can live without without a problem!
Get one, for £10, what's the worst that can happen?
I have that eBay case and it's just fine, it gives good protection and is hopefully hard wearing. I also have another case that I think is much nicer looking but isn't holding up living in my pocket all day.
Can't speak for the Portenzo from experience but from looking at it, it doesn't protect the N7 round the edges at all, that may not be a problem for you but it is for me.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008GSMRAY/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=electronics
anyone tried this one,well ive just ordered this one,will give a review once it arrives,probably monday
Cheers peeps, I'll buy the eBay one then.
Was just wondering whether the price difference offered much more protection etc.
But by the sounds of it the 10£ one from eBay is sufficient, plus it does look nice although the portenzo is BEAUTIFUL !
The ebay case is really good, you can't go wrong for that money.

I guess this is a unanimous decision, the eBay case is the winner.
Probably purchase later today, tomorow or next week. As I tend to put things off, as I only bought a case last week for it, BUT I HATE IT.
They sent me wrong colour, the case was different than in picture, the stitching was all over the place, the material was coming off etc etc.
But thats a different rant altogether, thanks for the answers people !

$30 3800 mAh External Battery Case

If you have or make a 1saleaday account, they have a 3800 mAh External Battery Case in both black and white for only $30. I just ordered! :victory:
Since I can't post external links, just go to 1saleaday and go to the Flash tab.
Never seen a website where you can't look up a product without going through account registration. I guess every CH retailer is different lol!!!
Regarding the battery, those are typically 0.5A input/output which means very slow charging of the battery and slow charging of the phone, and their capacity is typically below rated value. Also, I have seen those for $20 on ebay (like this one with flip cover, although 3200 mAh, but I have seen higher capacity at 3800 and 4000 too, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350655154588&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123).
Let us know how it performs when you get it. Good luck!
I buy from them all the time.
The good side is that occasionally they have a really good deal. The bad side is that shipping can take forever and on more than one occasion they've just cancelled an order for whatever reason.
As for this case (they have two charging cases for sale today), other than the slow charging, there is no access to the S-pen. The only reason I find one of the cases tempting is that it also has a kick-stand.
I'm passing on this case. My gut feeling is that it is a cheaply made product that I don't plan on putting on an expensive phone.

SAVFY Battery Case

Got a 'SAVFY' charging case for just £11.38 shipped off eBay. The battery of the S7 Edge seems excellent so far, but if, like me, you go on many football away days etc, you'll easily get through it in a day. Anyway, it looks as though SAVFY is just a knock-off Chinese brand, but I've used knock-off Chinese batteries before with good results (with one exception) and for less than £12 it seems a bargain. Here's an Amazon listing for the case: https://www.amazon.com/Charger-SAVFY-Portable-External-Rechargeable/dp/B01EN0JVAW
Mixed reception online it seems. One fella said the battery died after charging to just 30% (to me that sounds like a duff one), while others complained about the colours and tactility of the case. It claims to be 5200mAH but not sure how I'd really test that.
Quite a few of the negative comments are to do with the manufacturing materials, as such I would really advise anyone who does buy this case.....
BUY THE BLACK ONE. If you have a white phone, buy the black one, if you have a black phone, buy the black one, if you have a green with yellow spots phone, buy the black one. The reason why? The non-black colours are 'glossy', a bit like enamel or a hard plastic texture. One of the photos in the link above shows the Rose Gold one and you can see the hard plastic reflecting in the light. The plastic is also hard and feels brittle and will probably break if dropped.
The black one is different. It's still quite hard, but the outside material is like a rubbery texture. A bit like you get in some cars on the dash board. I doubt it'll be much better for absorbing impact, but I believe it will reduce the likelihood of bits of dust scratching the back and outer edges of your phone.
A few observations of my own:
- I personally am not all that impressed by the 'protective' level of this case. Large parts of the edge of the phone are completely exposed, so anything in your pocket could . I've done a few little (completely unscientific) tests using a table and the phone and I reckon if the phone hits the ground face down, you've got maybe 2-3mm of flex from the corners of the device, which is pretty much nothing. If it hits on the top you've got a reasonable 3-4mm and the bottom I'd say you're safe as it's protected by the thickest part of the case. If it hits the floor on an edge however, the amount of space between the phone and the floor becomes precariously low in my opinion. If you're lucky, it'll hit the phone on the back, bottom, or corners. Anything else could be curtains for this beautiful device.
- Not a negative, but it does add a fair bit of weight onto your phone (which tied into the point above...). It takes your phone from being a lightweight comfortable device to being, hmmmm, nearly the weight of a tablet I'd say. The case on its own weighs more than the entire phone. Fine in your pocket, but it does get a bit tedious holding it.
- No Micro-USB Cable was included. I know this sounds picky, but even the cheapest of cheap Chinese batteries i've bought in the past have come with a 5cm cheap cable to charge with. Come on?
Not had chance to actually try the case. It came charged up to the 4th light, so I will probably charge it up full and see if I can try it for a day. Don't really know how to test a 5200mAh battery, but my thinking is that it should be able to charge a S7 Edge from 0-100% then run it for a while too? Is that a terribly unscientific experiment? You betya.....
Tried it yesterday. Charged the phone from 27% up to 100% (while the phone was running too). It then charged it for about another 10-15% after (while running).
I call that a win.

So, I've used it a lot since then. I've been able to experiment with it a lot.
I think it's fair to say that it's better used keeping a fully charged phone, fully charged. Now, that might sound daft, but what I mean is, if you have your phone, run it down to 60%, then put it in the battery case, this seems to use more energy than simply leaving the phone in the battery case all day. I don't have any scientific explanation for this, rather I have empirical evidence.
The first few times I took it out, I did just as I describe above, allowing the phone to discharge to a moderate level, then re-charging it up. Suffice to say, in this scenario, the battery case will quickly run down to the 50% marker or even down to the 25% marker. This was fine, but obviously once the case is dead.... well, it's dead. Now you're onto your phone battery.
Instead, I tried it one day from 100%, so simply using the phone in a constant state of charge. Now, the case itself does occasionally switch off (perhaps it's wired to detect when the phone gets to 100%). I simply flick it back on. In this scenario, I was able to keep the phone at 100% all day (despite using it A LOT), and only use about 25% - 50% of the charge case. By 8pm, there was still plenty of charge left in the case and my phone was still at 100%.
As I said, I don't know the science behind this. I know that energy is often lost as heat, and it gets much warmer when charging from 50% than maintaining the phone at 100%. I know that charging via Micro-USB is also not 100% efficient. In fact, studies show that Micro USB is often inefficient.
With that in mind, I think I've given a pretty good example of how I use it. I think these are excellent cheapo battery cases, but don't use them to re-charge your phone to get maximum performance. Rather keep your phone in them all day, right from the minute you leave the house.
I am strictly against cheap battery cases. Heard a thousand stories about poor quality, no money back guarantee etc. I am a strict opponent of the "official" power cases also. The brand manufacturers spend zero time and effort on something worthy and innovative.
I would like to be proven wrong on my first opinion. Maybe I will buy some cheapo just to test it. I need more reviews and opinions on the SAVFY.
Meanwhile, the case market is hungry for innovations.
I admire brands like[URL="https://i-blades.com/samsung-phone-cases/galaxy-s7-edge-battery-life-case-memory/"] Nexpaq[/URL], I-blades and the uniVERSE Otterbox. If some of the brand manufacturers get the idea to make something similar there will be no time until cheap knock-offs appear on the market. I would definitely like to try some product of that kind

Thanks for replying. So my problem with the branded ones is they tend to be expensive..... and I mean really expensive!! Look at the Zero Lemon one. In the UK, that is currently £59 on Amazon. £59!!!??!!?! It's also $59 which in dollars, that might not sound too bad, but in UK money, that's seriously expensive for what is essentially nothing more than a big battery. I mean hell, you can buy a decent branded Universal battery pack with similar amounts of juice (or more), with several ports and some extra features for about £20. They're cashing in on the fact it's an S7 Edge specific accessory and the fact the people who own these phones either have big expensive contracts or earn decent money and therefore can afford to buy such a luxury product. Alternatively, you buy an original battery case from Samsung.... £54.99 and only 3100Mah. That's a joke. That's enough to recharge it once.....
I tried to look at the Otterbox but there was no price for the S7 Edge. I also looked at the nexpaq but there doesn't seem to be any details regarding the S7 Edge. While I think you're right to admire those two brands, and what they're doing is clearly innovative, something theoretical is useless to me. I came from an S4. I had two spares batteries in my wallet, which was ideal really because it meant I could switch any time I like and pretty much guarantee a whole weekend without my phone charger. You'd be surprised how often I used those spares. I reckon at least once or twice a week. I cannot do this with the S7 Edge. The Edge battery is good without a spare battery. Much better than the S4..... but like all phones, throw a few apps on, get some data connections running and boom, that battery soon disappears. I am a proper power user.
So, we look for answers and solutions that can give us something now. You can pay Zero Lemon £60 to sell you a posh, branded, ugly, massive case, which makes your phone into a brick.... or you look at the alternatives and you usually end up looking through eBay.
SAVFY are nothing special as far as I'm concerned. From what I gather they seem to be a company which buys cheap products and sticks their logo on. Many companies do that. In fact, some of the bigger brands do that as well. As with all labelled products, it's a gamble, you might get a good one, you might get a bad one. SAVFY were surprisingly good to me I found. So, I haven't mentioned that I decided to call them up over the fact my case appeared to discharge excessively if the phone was down to 50%, and they sent me another as a goodwill gesture for free. In fairness to them, they really didn't have to do that..... especially considering I've since found ways of making my original case last all day. It's quite possible this case is a 4000Mah battery or something similar, it's just losing charge through an inefficient charging procedure (micro-usb).
As for a guarantee, well, the thing was like £11. What kind of guarantee do you get for £11 man? You can't even buy a decent pair of shoes for £11 in England. Guarantees are something you get with £700 phones, or a £100 car stereo. To get a guarantee/warranty with something as cheap as that, very few places in England will give you one.... maybe ALDI but don't expect them to have a S7 Edge specific one, they only really deal with universal electronics.
To sum up, I made no really attempts to find a branded battery case. I looked through eBay, spotted SAVFY (a brand I confess to buying before) and decided that for £11 it was worth the gamble.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_o...+case.TRS0&_nkw=s7+edge+battery+case&_sacat=0
As you can see, eBay is awash with unbranded/generic branded battery cases. Some are labelled (wrongly) as 8000Mah... I would keep well away from those. Some are labelled 5200Mah. I believe they're the ones where the seller has been as honest as possible. It's completely impossible for any of these cases to be an 8000Mah, otherwise they'd be huge like the Zero Lemon. Science y'all.
Finally, I decided to have one crack at finding a branded case on eBay that wasn't a generic one, and wasn't super expensive. Nope. Literally not possible. The closest I found was this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Roger-for...213594?hash=item3f73a63b1a:g:mFcAAOSwjDZYe-lS
An AUNSY (never heard of them) 5200Mah battery case for £36 delivered.
Hmm, where have I seen that case before
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Galaxy-Edg...&qid=1485533629&sr=8-1&keywords=SAVFY+s7+edge
Nah..... When someone gets their act together, they'll create a solid 5200Mah with a genuine dependable battery at an affordable cost with a small warranty and we'll all be very very happy

Decent unboxing here, although he's gone for a shiny Gold one which I wouldn't recommended as it'll scratch your phone imo.
I just saw the misplaced link for I-blades. They are my most Samsung-friendly favorite brand. They have products for more and more Samsung models. Nexpaq and Otterbox stayed behind.
Previously I was referring to the innovations, not the price, though it is not so bad after all. I wish someday official Samsung product with the ideas from I-blades.

I'm actually pretty tempted to buy it. I've looked through many options for battery cases but I always see there's some kind of faults with them. Either they're not protective enough or just doesn't hold its charge.
This case on the other hand, has a benefit of analyzing the air around me. I'd like to know how is the air in my work environment working in a warehouse so I may know that I should wear some extra protective stuff. Despite the Smartblade adding an ugly bump, I hope the magnet attachment is actually strong enough to just slide off if I put it into some pants I have with slim pockets. And the other thing I hope is the battery being pretty large enough to actually extend battery life better than what I have now.

I'm actually pretty tempted to buy it. I've looked through many options for battery cases but I always see there's some kind of faults with them. Either they're not protective enough or just doesn't hold its charge.
This case on the other hand, has a benefit of analyzing the air around me. I'd like to know how is the air in my work environment working in a warehouse so I may know that I should wear some extra protective stuff. Despite the Smartblade adding an ugly bump, I hope the magnet attachment is actually strong enough to just slide off if I put it into some pants I have with slim pockets. And the other thing I hope is the battery being pretty large enough to actually extend battery life better than what I have now.

With the rapid advancement of electronics the days, this fits with the timing. I already preordered it and hopefully it comes fast enough for me to try and give a first depth review here.

Cool, by all means do.
Just an update. Charged from 0% to 100% with the SAVFY case yesterday, and run at the same time.
Not bad.

What makes you so much of a skeptic with attitude? If the case doesn't work as intended, I can always return it for a refund.

It's a 100 dollar case.... In England, with tax, it'll probably be the same. £100 for a fancy phone case?
It sounds like snake oil to me
I would happily spend midrange money but £100?
No thanks.... And I have a feeling people will be more keen to take a gamble on a cheap Chinese case than one which costs a days pay for most.
This video is the newest and the closest thing to review I've come across so far. They do go slow but it promises a quality product. I changed my Galaxy with a Note 5 but still I am looking forward the product. I am waiting for the Enviro Sensor Pack and then if I am satisfied will order the Battery/Memory Blade

I've been meaning to call the company to see when they're shipping the case for my Galaxy S7 Edge since it's already March. I already ordered the whole thing since it's a cheaper option to go with instead of spending an extra $50 on the memory blade separately.
So I tried to disassemble my SAVFY battery case today. Didn't really want to come apart. There's a hefty lithium ion battery in there. Whether it's the described 5200Mah, who knows?
I've given mine an absolute battering this week. Using it every day without fail including in seriously hot temperatures and had no issues, so I think these SAVFY ones are pretty solid for the most part. Cheap energy when you need them. Mine is starting to show signs of wear and tear now, as I'm using it so much (the rubberized finish is coming off) but yeah, it's a fairly solid piece of kit i'd say.
any update on this, which one will you recommend? cause there are numerous battery covers, which one is fake, which one is good?
